Web links in 'recent comments'

  • I’d like to turn off the web links which come up automatically in the recent comments column, i.e. the links to the external web site of the person who’s posted a comment. Can this be done without deleting the web link for each comment?

    Here’s the blog link: https://rescen.net/blog2

    Thanks, Andrew

  • I remove the links manually : Dashboard -> comments -> edit -> delete the link from the URL field .

    Yes, I can see that’s one way of doing it, just wondering if the links can be turned off globally without deleting the link data from the comment post.

    First find out the Class / ID attribute of the comment section and apply this code to the style.css file of your theme . I use Chrome to locate CSS atributes ( CTRL + shift + i ) .

    .somename{
    color:black;
    text-decoration:none;
    cursor:default
    }

    I wish I could do as you say, but am afraid that these instructions are beyond me… not sure where to start.

    I understand the CSS, it’s where to find and edit it in the pages and pages of code which make up the site.

    It also appears to me that the CSS code above would only change the appearance of the linked text rather than removing the web link itself.

    Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on.
